Hello ladies!
Just found this thread
I'm having problems with feeding Kai. He rarely seems to want to settle into in moses basket, but when he does, he's out for hours on end and I have to wake him to feed....then I'm feeding constantly for hours at a time!
I'm still using nipple shields as he's not latching properly....personally I don't think his mouth is big enough just yet, it doesn't help that I have flat nipples!
Yesterday was the worst day. I was almost constantly feeding from 2pm til 4am and he just would not settle away from my breast. I think it might be a comfort thing at the moment as he's not suckling continually.
I had loads of tears last night as I feel I'm doing something wrong! My OH has been brilliant though, reassuring me etc. He goes back to work on Friday and I'm dreading it!
Other than the feeding issues, little Kai is sooooo well behaved. He rarely cries, he's alert and loves looking around. He doesn't like being changed though

His cord came off yesterday, which I'm relieved about as I didn't like it...thought I might hurt him when changing him etc.
He's having his first proper bath today

I've top and tailed him previously but it's now time for a bath!
We're also taking him out to the park for the first time today....still got to fit the car seat base in the car though!
I'm sooo knackered and always worrying if I'm doing everything ok but I wouldn't change it for the world. I never knew I could love someone so much!
